The Indian men's and women's teams qualify for the Olympics 2024 for the first time in history. As a result, India can participate in both gender team event, two singles player each & one mixed double team. After the conclusion of the World Team Championships Finals in Busan last month, the last qualifying event for the Paris Olympics, seven spots in the team events remained, which have been awarded to sides based on their rankings.

In the women's event, India, ranked 13, Poland (12), Sweden (15), and Thailand have secured their passage to Paris 2024 Olympics. "The highest-ranked teams not yet qualified in the latest World Team Ranking booked their ticket to Paris 2024," ITTF said.

Croatia (12), India (15), and Slovenia (11) secured their spots in the men's team event. This is a huge moment in the Indian table tennis history, as it will be the first time the nation competes in the team event at the Olympics. Both the Indian teams had missed Olympic berths at the ITTF World Team Championships Finals after making pre-quarterfinals exits.
